Pretty soon you'll see a cool new kiosk in the foyer every Sunday morning with 2 stations to check kiddos (birth through MS) into their classes.
It's part of a web based people management program (Fellowship One) that we purchased and have been slowly bringing online the last 3 months. What you see in the lobby - an interface to check-in children/students and track them on Sunday mornings - is only the tip of the iceberg.
At this point we have about $4,000 and at least 300 man (and woman :) hours invested into Fellowship One. It will have every piece of information possible for every Creeker or guest. Demographic info yes, but much more -- Communication info with all guests; Connection info - decisions they've made, if they've been to Discovery Dessert, a Life Group; Spiritual Journey info - classes, equipping; etc, etc, etc . . .
I tell you all of this so you'll understand a little more about the big kiosk -- but more importantly so that you'll see how much people matter to us!!
This ISN'T just a system, but a tool to help us care for people in more consistent ways. We found over the past couple of years as we grew that more and more people - both guests and Creekers - were 'falling through the cracks.'
Fellowship One is going to help us to be God's hands and feet . . . to connect folks more quickly to others who can care for their needs and invite them to a Group. To connect everyone to serving opportunities that match our passion and to learning opportunities that match our season of life.
I'm pumped about the many ways that Fellowship One is going to help us help you - and many others - connect with God! And I'm so very thankful that we have leadership and staff with the vision to do what it takes to make people - and their eternities - our priority!
